Eating This Kind Of Cheese Could Destroy Your Heart

If you’re concerned about heart disease, or if you’re seeking ways to reduce the impact of future heart problems, altering your diet might be beneficial. Drinking and eating wisely, as well as exercising regularly and taking supplements, are all things that can help lower your risk of heart disease.

Cheese, like other foods, might result in a variety of illnesses if eaten excessively. Cream cheese is the worst kind of cheese for your heart, according to Lauren Manaker, MS, a certified dietitian on our medical expert board.

Cheese, according to Dr. Manaker, can be part of a heart-healthy diet as long as appropriate portion sizes are maintained and it is eaten in conjunction with an overall balanced and nutritious eating plan. “Cream cheese may be the worst cheese for your heart,” she adds.

Ms. Manaker adds that cream cheese is high in saturated fat and contains very few micronutrients.

Cream cheese has an 87 percent fat content in every 2 tablespoons. Its total fat is 10 grams, accounting for 15% of your daily value. Meanwhile, 5.9 percent of it is saturated fat (30% of your daily value).

A single slice of cream cheese has 29 milligrams of cholesterol. If you have heart disease, you should limit your cholesterol intake to 300 milligrams each day. Although 2 tablespoons of cream cheese may not seem like much, keep in mind how it adds up over time.

Cream cheese, on the other hand, comes with a number of disadvantages. Cream cheese is often eaten along with meals that aren’t particularly heart-healthy.

“When we look at dietary patterns and don’t consume one thing in isolation, it’s critical to consider the broad picture of what cream cheese consumption implies in terms of diet and lifestyle,” Manaker adds. “On occasion, cream cheese is acceptable; however, major quantities of this food will not be the healthiest option.”

If you’re searching for cream cheese to spread on your morning bagel or make delicious buffalo dip, consider using low-fat versions.
